Sister Luc Gabriel (her religious name), also known as The Singing Nun, was an international star! 

And, just like The Beatles, there was a movie about her starring Debbie Reynolds...

There's no number next to his signature which means there's only one Nina (the name of his daughter) in his drawing of The Beatles and The Singing Nun.  Can you find it?
